Futuremark Corporation Takes on [H]ardOCP

Posted by Zonk on Saturday October 9, 2004 @05:18AM from the please-stop-kicking-the-puppy dept.

RichM writes "After the ridiculous lawsuit by Infinium Labs against [H]ardOCP, companies appear to be queuing up to put the boot in. Next up, we have the Futuremark Corporation who apparently objected to the opinion that 3DMark2005 "sucked". The Vice President of Marketing for Futuremark exchanged a series of emails with Kyle Bennett, [H]ardOCP Editor, who dutifully posted the entire conversation to the front page of the site."

You don't actually expect a slashdot editor to do one moment of research or fact-checking before posting a story, do you?

Thats Tero Sarkkinen from Future remark's appology. But I noticed HardOCP also removed the "Sucked" part from the main page.

How about a little professional posting from companies, might be a good step to avoid all the "DRAMA".
